Money, money, money

Sorry to do it, but we now have advertisements on our bog. This is a way to earn money for 4-H. We make money off of these by the number of visits to our blog, and the number of times the ads are clicked on. Unfortunately me logging on our clicking on the blog does not count! So please spread the word and visit the blog. My goal is $50 per month!
I have had some recent experiences in both my work and professional life lately that have made me sit back, contemplate, prioritize and reflect. Sometimes when one does this, you don't necessarily like the results. Now of course, we never want to see our weaknesses, but often that is what make us stronger.

I interviewed 6 young adults this past week for our 4-H internship and asked each of them to identify their strengths and weaknesses. It was interesting to watch each one squirm with this question, but in a very short period of time do some sole searching and answer it so honestly.

I believe this is something I might just put on my calendar monthly to do; it will help me identify not only what i am doing well in life, but what I can improve on to make life better for myself and all those around me.

One, Two, Skip A Few....Seasons that is!

I know haven't wrote in awhile, please forgive me. Life in the 4-H world has been exciting. Our county was once again awarded a 4-H intern. I am so excited we have 12 applicants for this position. We will interview next week. We also have been named a finalist for a grant for our afterschool program. Keep you fingers crossed that we get it.
